Kukla's Korner Hockey

Polizzi, 17, a junior-to-be at CBC, was awarded the Bryce Salvador/Jamal Mayers Hockey Dedication Award and has trained with several NHL players over the summer, as part of the Hockey Academy of St. Louis’ Impact Hockey Training Project.
St. Louis Blues teammates, Salvador and Mayers have sponsored Polizzi through this summer’s 12-week program of vigorous workouts, skills training and nutrition counseling.
Beginning every weekday morning at 8:30 a.m., Polizzi joins Mayers and Salvador, along with Reed Lowe (St. Louis Blues), Neil Komadoski (Ottawa Senators), Greg Mauldin (Columbus Blue Jackets), Travis Turnbull (Michigan University) and Tom Fortney (University of New Hampshire), at the gym for a 2-hour workout.
And, according to Polizzi, it’s not your normal workout. After all, he’s training with pros.
